2 teens, 1 man are slain in separate shootings

Two teenagers and a 22-year-old man were killed this weekend in three separate shootings.

Jacob Campos, 16, of the 2700 block of North New England Avenue, Chicago, was killed Friday with his own gun in what police said appears to be an accidental shooting.

About 11:30 a.m., Campos brandished his gun inside a 16-year-old friend's house in the 2400 block of North Rutherford Avenue, police spokeswoman Laura West said. "He let the friend hold the gun," West said, "and told him that it wasn't loaded."

A bullet was fired, hitting Campos in the head. He died at the scene, West said.

Campos' friend was charged as a juvenile with involuntary manslaughter, West said.

On Friday evening, Tyrone Houston, 19, of the 1100 block of North Laramie Avenue was fatally shot in a separate incident on the West Side.

Houston got out of a car, leaving an associate inside the vehicle, about 10:30 p.m. in the 5400 block of West LeMoyne Street, West said. Seconds later, the man in the car heard gunshots. He left the car and found Houston on the ground.

Houston died of gunshot wounds to the chest, a medical examiner's spokesman said.

Montrell Fluellen, 22, of the 500 block of Plum Street, Aurora, was shot about 6:30 p.m. Friday outside his home after being chased by a man, Aurora police spokesman Dan Ferelli said. He was pronounced dead at 6:50 p.m. in Provena Mercy Center.
